This is easily the biggest head-scratcher decision made since the inception of MOTUC.
I don't understand the point of displaying the Raider inside the Castle.
It doesn't even look like it would fit when you consider the wing span.
Even if it did "fit", it blocks the entire door area and prison.
It's not a Man-At-Arms' Work Shop Playset, it's Castle Grayskull!
I'm hoping at some point down the road, something else (not sure what though) will be able to plug into that hole. As it stands, so to speak, this feature is completely one of those "WTH?!?!" kinda things, and something that maybe wasn't completely thought out by whoever came up with it.

I'm undecided. While I don't really want to put the Wind Raider in there (Not like the Sorceress needs help flying around!), I also don't want that big hole to remain there. Therefore, I think I'll keep the Talon Fighter in there instead until Point Dread gets made, if it ever does!

Um guys, just a thought, but if they included a large clear flight stand that plugs into the base and the other end fits the Windraider, it would be a set-up like it was flying over the castle. Just a thought.

Totally not. It's probably the dumbest idea to come out of Mattel Design yet (and that's saying a lot ). If they wanted to have a spot for the Wind Raider somewhere in the castle to promote the sales of the vehicle, that spot should have been the hole where the removable crown pawn thing goes, so that the WR appeared to be flying over the castle; that would have been a no-brainer and would have actually made sense.

Why is this a topic? Is there a refueling station inside CG I missed or something?

I always thought there was supposed to be a peg for the Wind Raider to be displayed "flying" above the castle...

Fans WANTED it above the castle, but sadly someone at Matty wanted it at ground level in the living room. Basically you take the "arm" of the WR stand & just put it in this big hole in the middle of the floor. Looks bad with the stand & without it. Really a dumb idea.

NO DYLAMUG? WE DIAL A MOB!The Space Mutants are missing something CRITAcal!
